SARS-CoV-2: An Analysis of the Vaccine Candidates Tested in Combatting and Eliminating the COVID-19 Virus by Elmancy, Laila

“…Even though research has progressed the understanding of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, the information gathered about the vaccine trials and their findings have been scarcely distributed to the public in a single study. The information available to scientists has therefore given researchers a pathway to building an efficacious vehicle to substantially decrease the spread of the virus. …”

Towards energy efficient and quality of service aware cell zooming in 5G wireless networks by Lateef, Hafiz Yasar

“…The exponential growth of mobile data traffic would lead to dense deployment of small base stations and eventually higher energy consumption in Fifth Generation (5G) wireless networks. We formulate a dynamic cell zooming and base stations sleep optimization algorithm for dense heterogeneous networks as a Linear Programming (LP) problem in order to not only minimize the system power consumption but also to guarantee the quality of service to end user. …”
